HGVs Ban Approved!

At long last, the Traffic Restriction Order (TRO) to ban HGVs from Shipley Bridge Lane has been approved. At the April 6 public meeting of the North Mid Sussex County Local Committee (CLC), the five local County Councillors, including Bill Acraman, county councillor for Worth Forest which includes Copthorne, and Phillip Coote, county councillor for Imberdown, who chairs the CLC, unanimously approved the recommendation to implement the TRO. See the Local Action Team (LAT) update on this site for more details.
